    Rear mounted snow blower viewing???

    Here's those pics for you (and others that might be interested). Enlarge the thumbnail pics for a larger view. Here's a pic of the mounting brackets I made for my mirror. This mirror had mounting bolts on each end so I just cut some slots in the brackets for the mirror to slip into. With...

    Rear mounted snow blower viewing???

    It's an older "Lorenz" brand blower. I think it was purchased about 1992 or '93.....early '90s anyway. Made in Minnesota and built like a tank. Those angled paddles will chop through the hardest wind driven packed snow. After 30 some years, I should think about replacing the outer bearings on...

    Rear mounted snow blower viewing???

    My horizontally mounted semi-truck outside mirror is now on its second tractor....this Kubota B2650. Mounted just above and in front of me when seated in the tractor gives a wide, undistorted , clear and full view of the 5 ft blower. Extremely easy to look in the mirror and back up while...

    Don't buy a bigger tractor than you need.

    My Grandpa said he was in "Hog Heaven" when he replaced his horses with an IH "A" to farm their 160 acre homestead in the earlier 1900's. Less than 20 HP and it didn't try kick him, either!! :LOL:

    Starting in real cold weather

    Kubota should have extended that table downwards a few more rows. We're still having some -20°F and lower mornings here this February!! :LOL:

    What size fertilizer spreader ?

    @MapleLeafFarmer gives good advice on this. I've used a pto spreader like mentioned for close to 30 yrs now on my location. It spreads granular fertilizer on the 3 acre tillable parcel and lawn fertilzer on the 12+ acre farmstead. I think the spreader came from Tractor Supply at the time. I...

    Building a raft and towing a Kubota B7100 to an island (vacation property).

    Years ago, I was on a scuba diving trip to dive the WW2 Pacific wrecks in Chuuk. After surfacing from a dive we witnessed two somewhat large open bow (rowboat type?) boats with wood planks fastened between them making the two boats look like outriggers. On top of the planks was a small truck...

    BH92 Backhoe Dolly

    Your wheel base on your dolly is quite a bit wider than mine. Even with yours sitting up a little higher..... it shouldn't be a problem. You can always undo things and lower it again if need be. Before my final dolly edition, it was frustrating to wheel the dolly up to the tractor, perfectly...

    BH92 Backhoe Dolly

    Paint ?? :LOL: Your design is very similar to the one I built for my BH77 a few years ago. It still needs a clean up for a paint job!! You can see my build Here I have my BH resting at an angle on a stand so that I can easily roll it right up to the tractor and over the mounting hooks...

    Custom Made Winterfront Kits for your Kubota Tractor

    The material itself is a fabric backed extreme cold vinyl so in effect....it is not breathable. However, the covers are not an absolute seal-tite fit. And if needed, you can shift a panel or fold over a corner to allow more are into the section that that cover is in place. Also, bear in mind...

    Arctic Cat...RIP

    They're only an hour's drive from my place. Very sad for the twon and all of northwestern Mn that they drew workers from. It sounds like they will fulfill their current contract orders and try support the existing sleds with parts for as long as possible. Arctice Cat was a big economic...

    Last summer I received a call from a neighbor who asked if I wanted him to deliver a new non-working 5000 lb capacity scissor lift table free of charge. If I could fix it, it would stay. Its back story: The neighbor had ordered it to use as a garage entry step with a possible future use as a...
